Texting

Texting, everyone does it no matter whether we’re at school, work, driving, eating, or hanging out with friends. It is a dangerous way of communication among friends and family. I remember the first time I got my phone, I would not stop texting. I would be sitting down in class and I would text my friend who sat next to me. There was a point in time where I wouldn’t talk to my friends anymore; I just texted them. Now that I have become an older person, I see things different now. I don’t want to be sitting down next to a person and read their thought with no emotion or live in a world where everyone communicates through half spelled words. To many, this is an addiction harming not only themselves but society as well. Many people text while driving and they don’t think of the consequences. Major car accidents are seen throughout the country and the cause for many of them is texting. People are dying every day and some are getting permanent brain damage. Personally I don’t text and drive. I am scared that I might get into a car accident and harming an innocent person. One of my friends text and drives and even though I have told her to stop, she continues to do it.
